Great tour guide and beautiful views

I had an enchanting time on the Danube Bend Tour with CRB Cityrama Kft! Our guide Veronica was experienced and truly a Great Guide, bringing Hungarian history to life. Esztergom’s cathedral was breathtaking, and the view from Visegrád's hill was simply unforgettable. Szentendre felt like stepping into a fairy tale with its charming streets and beautiful baroque houses. The boat ride back to Budapest was the perfect end to this once-in-a-lifetime experience. If you're looking for a memorable day filled with culture and stunning sights, I highly recommend this tour!

Great day trip

A very nice excursion from Budapest: The Visegrad Castle with the great view, the stop in Slovakia with a view of the cathedral, as well as the cathedral itself. Szentendre is a pretty town on the Danube, and the return trip by boat rounds it all off. Our tour guide Vera accompanied us very professionally and competently. She made the excursion perfect. Thank you very much for that, Vera!

Excellent day trip. Our guide Matheus switched effortlessly between English & Spanish to give us a full history of Hungary & the towns we were visiting. We had sufficient time at each stop for sightseeing. I can definitely recommend this tour.

Do not book!

This was an awful experience: bus broke down. No washrooms. Lunch at 4:00 pm , guide spoke mainly Spanish, description of excursion was not as depicted. It was a total waste of time and money. The cathedral was under construction and we were not advised in advance. Definitely a do not book in my opinion.
